Wifi antenna interference
#32
I just removed the Wi-Fi cards from both units of my 1000 Pro pair.

*WARNING* It is quite risky to open the case of the 250 Pro / 1000 Pro units! The ADH unit is actually stuck to the bottom copper cover. So, when you lift the cover off, the whole ADH comes off with it. The ADH unit is connected to the mainboard by rows of pins, which can get bent if you're not careful. I lifted the cover off slowly from one side (left side from bottom view). Putting the cover back on is also tricky. I did it by placing and aligning the cover to the left side first, then *slowly* lowering the cover on the opposite side so the pins go into the holes correctly.

There is also a heatsink for the Core Infinity SoC chip that is also stuck to the bottom copper cover. I didn't touch it and didn't bother re-doing the heatsink paste for the SoC.

I don't suggest the procedure for the faint of heart. Opening up the 250 Pro / 1000 Pro units is trickier than the smaller models.

Now how does it sound? Listening for a few minutes now. (Thank God it works!) Initial impressions: highs sound less edgy and smoother, bass may be a bit tighter.
